I've worked 2.5 years at a Big Bank as a Financial Analyst. I did a great job but got passed up for a promotion partly due to politics, and I feel it's time for me to leave.
I think I should grab an Finance position at some place that isn't a bank. But, my entire network is in banking.
My current plan is:
>spam my resume on linkedin 25+ times per day to anything that remotely interests me
>use a headhunting / recruiting firm that will also spam my resume
any other ideas

So basically accountant for a big company or a consultant in PWC or McKenzie

unfortunately im not a CPA. my degree is in Finance, went to a top business school, 3.95 GPA
im just wondering if im resume spamming to 200+ places on linkedin if im going to get any interviews out of it.

So I've never done this myself, but all the literature seems to point to this:
Contact people at different firms, people with more experience than you, pull the "I'm looking for a mentor card" flatter their ego. 80% will ignore you or tell you to fuck off, the other 20% will irrationally take a liking to you.
When there's an opening, guess who they call?
Another book I read said you literally write letters to companies who are fucking up something that's in your field of expertise and say
>You're doing X and such and such, and I can see you're wasting time/money/resources
>You should be doing Y and such and such. It will save you this much $$
>I worked at W, Z , Q firms. And I was dealing with projects like this all the time.
I don't know about that technique, but if you're not blowing smoke and if your email gets to the right person maybe.
